For group chats on the Surface Book, it activates the wrong camera - the back camera, the IR camera, but never the front-facing, regular camera. If I initiate the call to one person, it seems OK.

Review title of Daniel 3ICEKeeps showing notifications, but not logged in anymore.

+ It used a whole gigabyte of storage so I reset the app. Saved 900 MB, nice. One side effect: I got logged out. Oh, but not properly... See title. ^ now I get message notifications for like a second, then they disappear from my action center (notifications). Silly. Also only the last message is shown (usually a pointless smiley or a "like"... Old ones get overwritten...)
My original review has all has been fixed now. Issues were: Notifications cannot be turned off, app refuses input... No, no, no! Turn off notifications FOREVER, not 8 hours or until 8 am... Turn off contact sync WITHOUT removing my contacts. Etc etc... What is this app doing!? Not good. Battery hog, uninstall.
Edit: They ducking killed off messaging in the Facebook app for this? Website is the only way to message now... When will that be taken away from us I wonder.
Edit: Doesn't react to input, but keeps updating most recent message previews as they arrive so it's not frozen. Ducking unusable without touch support.

Review title of AlexWon't let me answer calls

I can't answer calls and I don't get notifications of such, I hear the ring but no option to answer. and it's missing some features the desktop version and phone app have like variety in size of emojis sent. this one is a minor complaint though. the main issue is that I can't answer calls

Review title of Rodrick5 Months since last update

Thousands of workers and Billions of dollars and still can't update or fix this broken app.

Facebook Inc responded on 2/15/2020

Hi Rodrick, thank you for trying the app and for giving us this feedback. We hear you! We're not as big of a team as you think 😅but we're working really hard on improving the app and will be updating it much more frequently than you've seen in the past. Would you be willing to let us know how we're doing in 2020? We appreciate you coming along for us on the journey, and really value your feedback. Thank you.
